Out of the videos of his I’ve seen I tend to agree with his points more often than not, but I hate the smug, sarcastic way he delivers them. It usually feels like he’s just padding out a simple message that could be presented in half the time if he wanted to.

The movie literally invented a fake son for the dude who owned the farm Tubman was owned on just to make sure when the actual history of the original farm owner dying and Harriet running and all happened the movie could give them a weird 'what if he could change though' c-plot, I'm not sure what the offensive part there is other than the plotline itself.

Inoffensive if presented annoyingly sometimes videos is surely comparable to the fuckheads who love a far right murder tourist, for sure, definitely not an extremely moronic comparison.

The original Shrek was made to make fun of what an rear end in a top hat Michael Eisner was though because he fired or forced Jeffrey Katzenberg out of Disney. Its plot is literally “Michael Eisner is a huge loving rear end in a top hat and he’s ruining animation (read: Fantasyland) because he’s a huge loving rear end in a top hat.”

How the gently caress does a man with the word “Movie” in his chosen moniker not understand cinema history?

actually Shrek is a boomer/karen archetype before our time. see this picture from the original book.

Yeah, I don't know if either of the few Thought Slime videos I've watched were anything groundbreaking but they're not bad little rants. I think the last one about the culture war worked. A slightly cathartic 10 minutes over how dumb it all is followed by light despair over the fact that you either ignore the "culture war" and let them control the narrative and rack up points or engage and let them distract from actually important poo poo.

yeah, none of them are anything new. but i liked some of them. like the one about that nazi book and the one about the various lazy batman arguments. i dont watch his stuff for marxist/anarchist theory or whatever.

thoughtslimes got a few bangers at at least from my pov no bad ones.

his trilogy on jobs he's worked is a good reminder that bosses need to be destroyed

his batman video is the best possible answer to "isn't batman a fascist", which is bullshit, and essentially tells people that the left are all terrible killjoys here to take away your comic book

his superman video is great but that might just be because anyone can sound great when they talk about stuff that happened in All Star Superman

his she-ra video is one of the best things on YouTube but I might be biased because it was really the straw that broke the camels back for me finally just admitting (to myself and others!) that hey I'm nonbinary. it's a good examination on how dipshits fabricate the culture war to push their ideological desires but that's not news to anyone in this thread.

there's good videos that aren't about cartoons and comic books but those last three are the ones I'm most willing to rewatch.

(also when someone called him out for a lovely thing he did he apologized and then made a video that basically said "gently caress you everyone calling this cancel culture, they were right", which is p good)

Thought Slime also tries to help out smaller channels by showcasing them in the Eyeball Zone/Solidarity Corner but also realizes that sometimes his content would bring bad eyes so he doesn't do it on those videos.

Saying someone (often minorities who feel the side effects of a huge and popular story that even accidentally glorifies authoritarianism) critiquing a story = 'taking away your comic book' is cool, not weird culture war insanity at all.

I've only watched one video from ThoughtSlime and it was his recent "sub celebration" one on imposter syndrome. It was really freaking good. Very relatable for a lot of us YouTubers and folks who generally talk poo poo on the Internet, to be honest (so y'know, probably biased towards that subject).

So yeah I'm not sure I understand where a lot of this vitriol's coming at really. Like, he seems perfectly ok when it comes to the whole field and THE DISCOURSE.
